Craze
A demented art dealer and antique shop owner performs nightly rituals in honour of the African god Chuku, whom he believes will reward him with unimaginable wealth and power if he merely offers human sacrifice.
Why it matters
A late-’70s occult shocker that rides the wave of supernatural folk horror and blaxploitation’s eerie fringes, delivering unsettling ritualistic dread wrapped in grimy urban decay.
- One of the era’s rare indie genre blends, merging African spiritual horror with exploitation grit.
- Features raw, practical effects and unsettling atmosphere — no polish, just pure, uneasy energy.
- A glimpse into 1970s occult obsession filtered through a distinctly street-level perspective.
- Perfect for fans of obscure cult horrors who prize weird, off-the-radar ritualistic terror over mainstream scares.
